That has to be one of the most bizarre posts I seen on this thread. I assume that is total population numbers. Deduct women and children and old people, then tell us how many are able to fight. Then, tell us which will have the best fighters. After that, realise that just numbers don't win wars.

Per forum rules you are required to post proof that Trump promised to leave NATO. I've heard/ read nothing to support that. Even a 1 minute google search proves that is not true. https://www.politico.eu/article/donald-trump-says-he-wont-quit-nato-if-europe-pays-its-way/

The bit about woman hating is an obvious lie as Trump does like women, and is in trouble for it. Perhaps he is too ignorant to understand that IMO Trump was elected to destroy the established order, not to be a part of it. Lammy is apparently a paid up member of the establishment, and a virtue signalling one at that Woke too. I'd love to be in the room when Lammy has to meet Trump next year. I doubt Trump is willing to forgive and forget about being called a Neo Nazi sympathiser.

Still with the insults. Are you incapable of posting without the insults or attacks on other posters? Have I posted any insults about you? I have not, despite your insults to me.

Given you didn't come up with any proof that I'm enthusiastically supporting Russia’s war in Ukraine that IS a lie, IMO. Would Ukraine being absorbed by Russia be a good thing or a bad thing? It's a nonsense to say that all of Ukraine is the objective, as the invasion failed to do so and Russia IMO no longer has means to do so. They do have the means to keep Eastern Ukraine and Crimea though, IMO. In any event, why would I care who runs Ukraine? Makes no difference to me and there are worse conflicts going on all over the world- do you care about Sudan or Burma? I’ve asked you and Bob to do this many times but you won’t. In what universe do you live to think that either of us has to do anything you want? Here's a thought. Instead of constantly attacking other posters, you could discuss the topic- you know "how will it end".

I gave that a laugh emoji. Here's another

Only change I'd make would be not getting married.

I hadn't been in a relationship for 10 years before discovering Thailand. I was happy eating pizza every day, till she stopped providing pizza.

You are wise about the family. My wife and I were happy till we moved to be with the family. After that it was just a downward spiral to doom. PS we were happy and unmarried- the move to live with family happened just after getting married. Lived together a few years first.

What is love? I bet you can't give a definitive answer. IMO love can be many things, but at essence it's a reaction to external stimuli that causes a chemical/ hormonal release in the body, that were designed into animals to make them mate to propogate the species. Being human, of course, we have turned that basic genetic response into some illusory wonderful thing that for most wears off. If we are lucky we like our mate enough to stay together, but if unlucky it ends in divorce. Seems you got lucky in that gamble.

And it doesn't sound good ! One does not expect persons having fled Russia to be posting good news, does one?

Thanks for that VDO. It certainly gave me a good laugh. Really, we shouldn't laugh about the person that might be in charge of nukes- we should be very, very afraid. She really likes saying "together", doesn't she? Before I watched that I was of the opinion that she is a terrible VP, but now I think that is a fact.

Better that than the NZ experience of PR which has allowed the loonies to run the country for far too long.

Who has been saying that? Not I anyway. The danger is that when Ukraine is obviously losing NATO joins the fight, which would be a de facto declaration of war against Russia.

I'll bet you can't find any facts to support "A lot of them are".

LOL. There is no "complexity" in achieving peace. Stop bombing women and children to death, have a ceasefire and allow all the aid in. Then have a proper conversation about a future for Palestinians. The onus is on the occupying power.

Does Cameron become unemployed now? One hopes so.

Tell us how that would help. Let's say they decide to do so; which would be allowed in ( no way 2 million would fit in ). How would they dispose of the sewage? How would they feed them? How would they bring in enough water? What happens to them when the israelis flood the tunnel, or drop a big bomb to blow it up? Your talking point is just that, a talking point with no basis in reality.

I don't think the rich care about politics. IMO they will support whichever party gives them the best deal.

and one hopes that continues. NY has declared itself a safe place for illegal immigrants, so they are welcome to the expense, and should not expect people outside NY to pay for their political choices.

So, your Ukrainian friends can go fight to stop Russia. I take it they are not already doing so because you are in communication with them.

Perhaps you can point out the rules that say a country can't have friendly relations with other countries that they are not at war with.

We don't need to fight for Russia a/ because we don't support Russia b/ because Russia is winning You guys keep banging on about casualty numbers as if they make a difference- they don't, as Russia isn't running out of men. Lost tanks won't lose the war. The Russians only need to defeat any assault against them now, and that can be done by anti tank weapons. Tanks are more an attack weapon than a defensive one. You can bang that "Ukraine is winning" drum all you like, but it's not as long as Russians are advancing.

Look at the forum rules. It's up to posters to prove their claims, NOT up to those reading them.
